I like to know what I’m putting on my skin and especially on my face. Makeup brands are turning the page on using harsh chemicals and leaning towards natural ingredients to create their makeup products.
Our skin loses elasticity as we age, yes this happens to all of us. Also, as we get older, our skin tends to react to certain ingredients it didn’t use to. Often, the makeup that we are applying is contributing to a buildup of toxins on our skin and over time this results in clogged pores and unsightly rashes. Time to change our makeup!
Today, we have more options than ever to choose our makeup wisely. Choosing a natural foundation designed for aging skin is a good idea for women over 50. A natural foundation means that it is free of harmful chemicals, dyes, synthetic fragrances, and preservatives. Oftentimes, makeup that is produced with natural ingredients tends to be cruelty-free, vegan, and packaged with the environment in mind.
